Maybe, but I'm not sure how you solve a few problems: 1. Allowing multiple identities & pseudonyms - maybe I don't want my identity as @furry_mpreg_artist in one discord to be directly linked to @database_expert on StackOverflow or to @local_bicycle_repairperson on my local facebook group? 2. People obtaining these digital passports, and immediately giving/selling/losing them to some bot who can juggle those bits as easily as a human can. 3. What happens if you lose access to your passport? A toddler spills cranberry juice into your desktop, an adversary hacks your computer, you have a psychotic break and overwrite your hard drive platters with magnets & hammers?

The crowd which screams that everyone is a nazi wants to put barcodes on all of us.

  And if you are unwilling to abide by the rules, they don't want your participation. Which is totally fair.

    As history has shown, the set of rules will grow to exclude more people over time. Perhaps even including you.

  That's putting a lot of words in a lot of people's mouths.

I don't see any actual problems in your list. 1. This is not a problem but a feature request that initially is not covered by the proposal (ie no pseudonyms) 2. This is not a relevant problem (red herring) because stealing an identity is already illegal 3. The same password or identity recovering steps as usual (see: FSAID)

  1. I think that it's sufficiently important to be in version 1.0; this isn't like that truck that doesn't come with paint or an entertainment system. 2. I disagree. If the point of the proposed solution is to prevent bots from impersonating humans, it's gotta have some mechanism to actually solve that problem - and if a human can hand over the keys to their identity to a bot, then the solution absolutely does not solve the problem. (And identity theft was only one of the ways a bot could get a human's identity.)
